wisconsin Lands Opened to Settlers.

The commissioners of the general land Of
fee at Washington has directed that, under
the recent decision OF the secretary of the in
terror, the lands lying within the indemnity
belts along the line OF the Wisconsin Central
railroad and included in the indemnity
tracts OF the Wisconsin Farm Mortgage
company be thrown open to settlement.
The lands in the latter tract are hardly
worth mentioning. The unsolicited lands
within the Wisconsin Central ,indem-
nifty belt amount to about 2oo.-
600 acres. The commissioner has also di-
rected the throwing open OF settlement of
the indemnity lands along the Chicago, ST.
Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha railroad,
amounting to about 125.OOO acres. There
are excluded from this order the selected
indemnity lands OF this road along the
line from Hudson to Superior. These list
are in the hands OF the secretary for ad.
iustment now. The local officials at the
land Offices Of Ashland, Eau Claire, Wau-
sau, La Crosse and the Falls OF st Croix
were notified by letter OF the opening of
these lands.
New Ulm weekly review., 1887-09-07

The Supreme Court OF the State OF
Illinois, refusing mandamus to COM
pei the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad
Company to put its tracks in safe
condition and run sufficient mum
ber OF trains, yet declares that pro-
lection and facilities must be offered
or the franchise forfeited. Tt AYERS
that the proper procedure is by way
of quo warranto. The Court goes up.
Oh the ground that a bankrupt rail
road corporation cannot be compell-
ed to do that which requires either
cash or credit. The main principle,
however, is affirmed; if the corpora
tion cannot or will not do that for
which it was created, it must go out
of legal existence. The practical diff.
ference between the two modes OF pro-
scedure, that by way OF mandamus
and that by way OF quo warranto, is
one OF time. The same end is reached
eventually.
New Ulm weekly review., 1887-09-07

The extension of the national bank
ing system in the West and South has
been grea ter in the last two years and
a half than it has been in any part OF
the country during any equal period
since the close Of the war. Within
this time the number of banks in the
Southern States increased 81 per
cent, and the number in the Western
States 20 per cent, while the increase
in the whole country north OF the
Chesapeake and east of the Ohio has
been less than 8 per cent. This in
crease of banks in the West and
South, following the growth OF gen.
eral business, and providing facilities
to meet it, has done away very large
~ with the prejudice that formerly
existed in these sections against the
national banking system.

President Fitzgerald on the procl.m.tion.

President Fitzgerald on the Proclamation.
The following is an extract from a letter
from President Fitzgerald OF Lincoln Neb.,
under date of Aug. 20, published in the
Northwestern Chronicle, st. Paul COM
menting on the proclamation OF heSleague
in Ireland: s5sa
The proclamation cannot effect the con-
S titution or modus operandi Of the league
in America, beyond the necessary reten-
ton of moneys by Rev. D. 0'Reilly, until
officially informed by the Irish execu-
tive OF any changes that may be
made Tor the safety OF the league funds in
Ireland. understand that all the resist
ance compatible with prudence and expedi-
ency will be given to the coercion act. AS
far as possible this act will be ignored as
stretch OF tyranny to which no people
worthy OF freedom will submit to- Such a
course will doubtless involve the arrest
and imprisonment OF some of the leaders.
There is grave reason to fear that, depriv-
ed OF the cool and wary veterans who
have been Mr.. Parnell's lieutenants dur
ing the past years, many Of the more
fiery and reckless among the people will
abandon constitutional agitation, and
acting on the advice OF the London Times,
that" Liberty is a thing to be foughtout with
only too apt scholars OF a doctrine where.
by England melted revolution in other
lands. The only part we can play is to
lend our Irish brethren every possible
sympathy and support. Mr.. Parnell and
his colleagues deserve our confidence, and
renewed activity in the cause should
characterize every member OF the league.
In q special manner I appealto the Irish
men OF the Northwest. No man is the
poorer for. what he has given to the IRISH
cause, rather is he richer in the con-
sciousness of having performed duty
made incumbent on him by the traditions
OF his race. After all, this malicious
action OF the Tory party is the last flicker
IN it's ebbing life, and not many months
will elapse before a second renun ciation
